Claim to Fame season 3 cast: show clues, theories and more

Naomi, Hud, Gracie Lou, Dedrick, Mackenzie and Shane in Claim to Fame season 3.

With gameshows like Beat Shazam season 7, The 1% Club and Celebrity Family Feud season 10 taking over network TV for the summer, Claim to Fame season 3 joins the ranks with a new crop of contestants ready to compete. 

As with Claim to Fame season 1 and Claim to Fame season 2, those competing are related to well-known celebrities from across the sports world, the entertainment industry and more. They are all vying for a chance to win the season's monetary prize. In order to do that though, they'll have to do their best to keep the identity of their celeb relative a secret. So who are the people trying to claim victory this season? 

Here are the contestants in Claim to Fame season 3.

Show clues: Jill is related to an actor with a People's Choice Award. The person in question is her grandfather.
